Wednesday afternoon the case State vs..
John Mack of Salisbury came on. He
is charged with having assaulted Miss
Helen Lawrence, teacher of the district
school in Salisbury village. on Monday,
Dec. y, 1856. There had been trouble
in the school and the respondent thought
his children had not been properly treat
ed and so went up to the school house on
the date mentioned to regulate matters,
when, it is alleged, he struck Miss Law
renee with a writing book and used con-
siderable bad language. He is defended
by Mr.. Ballard and W. II. Bliss, Esq.
His trial was still in progress when this
paper went to press.
There are one or two more criminal
cases to be disposed of by trial or other
wise, and it is doubtful if the court can
finish its work the present week, though
probably there will be no use for the
jury after Saturday.
Mary Reed and David Lee of Ripton
indicted under the blanket act, have
made themselves scarce and the bail has
been called and forfeited.

EFFECTS OF THE STORM.

The severest blow of the season oc.
CURED yesterday morning. Shortly
before daybreak the breeze from the
sea came piping over the Lill and sci
things shivering. 1t blew down signs,
upset fences, carried away skylights,
tore off tin from roofs, threw down
| fagstaffs, smashed glass, shook down
chimneys, and banged and ratified
and howled, rocking houses, scream
ing and signing and wailing, clattered
at doors, vibrated windows, beat the
rain into every conceivable Granny
and crevice, and then went roaring
over intoWashington territory, where.
meeting other boisterous breezes, it
threshed through the tall timber.
Pythian building. the coal bunkers
and one or two other buildings lost a
part OF their tin roofs; W. ID. Smiths
cannery suffered serious damage, the
sides and roof being blown into the
water, the machinery standing on the
bare wharf; part of the buildings OF
the L. X. L., Pacific Union, and
George & Barker's canneries were
blown down, and in the city trees
were blown down and much damage
in the aggregate done to windows
and walls.
There were good many unpleasant
experiences, among them being that
of VIM. Beck, who, with his wife and
child, were compelled to abandon
their house at midnight and in the
drenching rain, seek shelter at
neighbor's.
The Clstsop Mill Co. lost about TO-
900 feet OF lumber, blown from their
wharf, part of which was afterward
recovered.
The damage to the old Adair can
merry is estimated at $500 or S3,000.
the building being badly wrecked
and the pipes twisted and discon-
nected.
The shipping in the stream Jared
well, whatever damage was done by
the wind being confined to the shore.
1t was the severest blow we've had
for several years.

Bound for the Csa>t.

Many railroad men believe that
having arrived at Helena, NJ. T., the
st. Paul, Minneapolis Il Manitoba
railroad will soon be pushed forward
to the Pacific. The principal ground
for the belief lies in the wonderful en-
terprise of the company. The present
season has been one OF great activity
on the line, and the company has, by
its prodigious feats of construction,
been singled as one of the most pro-
gressive corporations in the United
States. The task marked ont last
spring of buying, forwarding, distrib-
uting and using the material for GOO
miles of road was regarded as an i'm
posing one, and its completion was at
first looked upon in the railroad
world as next to impossible. A CON-
pany that can do such wonderful
things in the way of construction
may safely be counted on to carry out
the project of building line TO this
coast. Then, too, its aggressiveness
and independence have been the ad-
miratlon OF railroad men everywhere.
The extension of the line westward
from Helena to this coast may be an
ticipsted as one of the railroad events
of the coming year. Already it is a
dangerous rival to the Northern Pa
cific, and in pushing on and making
Astoria its transcontinental terminus
it would spur that company to neces-
sary action that it now appears to
hold in deferred contemplation.

The traffic OF the Alaska line of
steamers is stated by the agent of
,the line to have surpassed by far
those OF prior seasons. In 1885, one
steamer per month was all that was
necessary for the accommodation of
the trade which the territory afforded.
In 1886, the service was increased to
a steamer semi-monthly and the traf-
fic was sufficiently large to justify the
expansion. During the past season
the steamers AncOn, Idaho and
OLympiGn have maintained a weekly
service up to September LIST, and it is
now the intention to run a semi
monthly line during the winter, and
to continue weekly service, or oft.
ener, il the business warrants, during
the season of 1888. The Astoria bus.
iness quadrupled in 'S7 and bids fail
to be equally profitable to the Alaska
steamers in '8S.
